Our tour guide included a tour of the campus and we finished in the Auditorium/Theater. Spectacular. The whole campus was stunning, the architecture the history. Really impressed.

We did not plan to visit, but due to a change in our itinerary we gave it a try and WOW were we amazed. The drive is not for the faint of heart as some of the curves are unguarded, but the view from the top is not to be missed. The statue of Christ is beautifully designed and the distance from the surrounding cities led to a perfect opportunity to reflect on the wonder of the creation. Set aside some time to visit Christo Rey, you will be glad you did.

Of course, when we talk about "Las Momias" (mummies) by default you think about death, the reality is that the place is very well taken care and even when all of them were real people who passed away long time back, it is fascinating to understand why their bodies are still here (because of the soil of Guanajuato) and the stories around them... you will have the chance to ready about some of them, understand their surroundings and even see some of the clothes they were using back in their lives. Very nice place to visit indeed... absolutely recommended.

Inexpensive ride to the.base of the massive El Pipila monument and some of the best views and photo opportunities in town. Expansive views of the historical center, surrounding neighborhoods, and nearby mountains. A ride on the funicular is a great way to kick off a visit to Guanajuato.
